Update on the ideq 200p SFF system with the Via 6420 SATA raid controller.
I acquired a a cheap SIIG sata card (SATA-II-150 PCI) that uses the sata_inic162x driver, and disabled the 6420 SATA controller in the bios. The LG drive worked well on boot and read access, no issues on 2.6.27-9 and 2.6.27-10. No issues with the sata HD.
Recording via k3b, Nero or cdrecord didn't work so well. All burn attempts results in a freeze/hang of the burn application.
I dedicated the SIIG to the LG GGW-H20L, plugged the HD back on the now re-enabled Via 6420. Burning now working well.
So from my perspective: the 6420 sata controller doesn't work too well in Intrepid for optical drives, and there is some issue with sharing the SIIG sata controller on my system. This issue might be software, hardware or a combination of both.
